The Star-Tribune reports:
A University of Minnesota associate professor engaged in a lurid Internet exchange with a 15-year-old girl from Louisiana, coaxing her to take photos of herself naked and to send them to him, according to FBI documents filed in U.S. District Court this week.
During the inquiry, launched after the girl’s mother contacted authorities, an FBI agent posed as the girl online and conducted further online exchanges with the professor. He was arrested 12 days ago at his southeast Minneapolis home.
On Monday, U.S. Magistrate Judge Tony Leung ordered that Woody Dale Branton, 62, an associate professor of neuroscience … be held without bail and transferred to Louisiana for court proceedings.
